About Me (she/her)
I'm a writer and a content strategist with a passion for solving life's problems.
I use the written word to help brands, communities, and individuals create meaningful connections, while addressing various challenges along the way. In my work, I advocate for accessibility, authenticity, and engagement.
When I'm not writing, I like to watch films and TV shows, or geek out on beauty, K-pop, and fashion.
I am also an advocate for mental health awareness, disability rights, and women's rights. These advocacies were informed by my experiences as a disabled, neurodivergent woman living in the Philippines.

The agency tapped content creators from the medical team on TikTok to discuss these topics. I also developed a reach out message encouraging these KOLs to join.

Fun Thing #1: Film Photography
I dabble in film photography when I have the time (and the budget). My usual subjects are sceneries and moments from everyday life.
Fun Thing #2: Content Creation
Outside of work, I like to develop various forms of content. I have a newsletter that I update regularly. Recently, I've been experimenting with making mini-vlogs to document my life and my mental health journey.
Fun Thing #3: Watercolor Painting
One of the most cliched, yet most useful pieces of advice I've received about detaching my work from my self-worth is to find a hobby. Currently doing color experiments on watercolor as a means to relax and have fun.
